I think I bought this can from the bar at Cardiff Giant since I was already so close to home. Tulip pour. Clear, pale straw body. Carbed. Smells of hay, melon, & some unidentifiable florals. Dusty. Taste is all about pineapple. Not tart though, just the vanilla-ish, unique citrus of it. Honeydew? No, more pineapple. Little bit of bubblegum. Very light, still floral. White sugar sweet. Thin. Definitely different. Definitely interesting. Great? Undecided. Do not feel the 6.9% abv at all. Worth a try.

A hazed pale blonde cider with aroma of sweet apple, light acidity, lemon juice, very nice. In mouth, a nice sweet tart apples with light acidity, light chalky notes, nice and smooth yet complex. On tap at CNY Brewfest 2016.

Bottle. Cloudy, pal gold, no head but effervescent. Dry nose, apples, skin. Tasty flavor of sweet apple, finishing semi-dry, a bit oily and full. Nice balance and good drinking all around.

Tasting at Matt’s
Very pale color, cloudy. Appley and lemony aroma. Moderately sweet, with fresh apple juice flavor; not much character or depth, but still a pleasant cider.

Bottle - Fleshy green dry apple. Cloudy pale gold. Sweet apple and some nice sweet notes. Easy drinking, sweet and inoffensive. Draft - Apple and some light funky notes. Pale grey. Light funky fleshy Apple. Better than the bottle, not nearly as sweet.

500mL bottle, pours a hazy blonde / yellow with a tiny, quickly-dissipating white head. Aroma brings out farmhouse yeast, very dry quality, and musty apple skins. Flavour brings out light-to-medium sweetness, with farmhouse yeast, apple skins, and medium residual sweetness. Nothing complex, but I like the saison yeast in here. Decent.

500 ml purchased at Leary’s Fine Wine. The color is massively hazy after a slow canted pour. Aroma is cheap Motts Apple sauce with yeast.
The flavor is close to a cheap grocery store apple sauce watered down with earthy yeast and baking soda. I never have gotten a chewiness form a cider before, not really a pleasant thing. I expect some crispness, that crispness isn’t really here. I like the creative idea behind this cider, it’s a same it just doesn’t really come together very well.
